Yiching Chen
Wind II by Chen Yiching - Contemporary nihonga painting, soft colors, tree

2017

About the Item

Wind II is a unique painting by contemporary artist Yiching Chen. The painting is made with mineral pigments on Japanese paper mounted on wood, dimensions are 30 x 40 cm (11.8 × 15.7 in). The artwork is signed, sold framed (shadow box) and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Chen Yiching produces floral artworks which delicateness equals the precision required by the Nihonga, a Japanese traditional pictorial technique used for their composition. Nihonga literally means: ‘Japanese’ (nihon), ‘painting’ (ga). It keeps a close poetic relationship with the elements of nature, not only with subjects, but also with the materials used in its technical creation. Although traditional, this technique offers creative possibilities that can be constantly added to, especially with the use of colour. Indeed, this highly meticulous technique firstly requires the creation of the pigment (enogu) from crushed minerals and plants which once mixed with glue (nikawa) and water creates the paint, the raw material of Nihonga. Traditionally applied in several successive layers on mounted paper, this raw material, sometimes augmented by metal leaf, produces an impression of surprising transparency typical of Chen Yiching’s works.
